Two Killed One Wounded in Woodridge Apartment Shooting

May 23, 2017

(WLS) Three people were shot, two fatally, at an apartment complex in southwest suburban Woodridge overnight. Investigators tried to piece together what happened Tuesday morning.

Neighbors said they heard shots just after midnight and saw the injured being carried out of an apartment at Hawthorn Ridge in the 7700-block of Fox Street.

“That is bad. That is bad. I would never have thought this would happened in Woodridge. I would never have thought this would happen. I’m so tired of crime out here. Everybody killing each other and doing things to each other,” said Michelle Cureton, a neighbor.

People who live nearby also said they believe children were inside the apartment at the time of the shooting.

The identities of the victims have not yet been released. Police did not give details on the condition of the third person who was shot.

Investigators have not yet determined what led to the shooting, but said the public is not at risk.
